Q3: Can this supplement be used for other small pets besides rabbits and guinea pigs?
Ans: It's formulated with rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and rats in mind. For any other species, it's best to check with your veterinarian before giving it, since dosing hasn't been established for every type of small animal.
Q4: Is this supplement safe for pregnant or nursing animals?
Ans: No, it isn't intended for growing, pregnant, lactating, or food-producing animals. If your pet falls into any of those categories, it's best to skip this one and check with your vet for alternatives that are appropriate for their situation.
Q5: What ingredients give this supplement its Omega-3 and 6 content?
Ans: The flaxseed meal, palm oil, and canola oil in the formula are the main sources of those fatty acids, working alongside Timothy grass and chamomile to round out the recipe. Guar gum and mixed tocopherols help hold the tablet together and keep it fresh.
Q6: Does this supplement contain any artificial ingredients?
Ans: No, it's free of artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives. The ingredient list relies on Timothy grass, grains, chamomile, and natural oils instead of synthetic additives to support skin and coat health.
Q7: How should I store this supplement?
Ans: Keep the bag sealed tightly after each use and keep it somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight. This helps keep the tablets fresh and effective for as long as possible. A pantry shelf or cabinet away from heat usually works well.
Q8: Is this supplement a substitute for my pet's regular hay?
Ans: No, it's meant to be an addition to your pet's diet, not a replacement for their regular hay. Your pet still needs consistent access to fresh hay as their main source of daily fiber. This supplement just adds a bit of extra support on top.
